Over 400 people participated in the 6th Annual Lacy Richard Memorial Ride on Saturday, June 16 and raised over $30,000 for two children, Mason and Olivia, in Lacy’s memory. Lacy Richard passed away in 2012 after a courageous battle with cancer, at the age of 23. Her parents Glen and Shelly Richard, of Waterboro, held the 1st annual ride the following year and have, over the last six years, raised over $85,000 for others in need. “Lacy loved helping people and and enjoyed helping us with other benefit rides,” said her mother Shelly. When Lacy was diag- nosed in 1990, a benefit was held to help the Richard family with expenses. “Glen and I missed a lot of work and traveled to Boston frequently. Since then our entire family has paid it forward,” said Shelly. She says their son Zac and their friends Brian and Christine Nichole Houde, right, of Sanford, touches her best friend Lacy’s Happy 100th Birthday! have helped out since day one, as headstone after the memorial service held on Saturday, June 16 well as many others. in Buxton as part of the 6th Annual Lacy Richard Memorial Ride.
